The saying goes poor and minority its my belief that this as it says. allows public schools to do just as they see fit... I live in a small town and I have a multi-handicapped 13yr old son the school where we are at, has all but showed my child to the door but only when they felt it was time they can twist laws and regulation to suit their selves when you are one of the many poor minoritys you have no way to fight back so they are allowed to leave whom ever they choose behind you are told one thing and served another .i would like to know just this hwo on this planet will stand of for ppl like this

Comments from a retire lobbyist friend -

With the staff of both parties being paid by us helped to make sure that either way the bill would meet our needs"

That's how the system works, grow-up people.
